Wave Motion as Inquiry : The Physics and Applications of Light and Sound

Cham : Springer International Publishing : Imprint: Springer, 2017
Abstract/Sommario: This undergraduate textbook on the physics of wave motion in optics and acoustics avoids presenting the topic abstractly in order to emphasize real-world examples. While providing the needed scientific context, Dr. Espinoza also relies on students' own experience to guide their learning. The book's exercises and labs strongly emphasize this inquiry-based approach. A strength of inquiry-based courses is that the students maintain a higher level of engagement when they are studying a top ...; [leggi tutto]
